and finally it's someone who can pronounce all the names properly (at least i assume it's proper)!

Finally it's not some anti-communist westoid (as so many history YouTubers are) or Falun Gong cultist. That is more important to me than pronunciation, i can overlook pronunciation errors, especially now that i am learning Chinese and know how it's actually supposed to be pronounced. But yes, the narrator being fluent themselves in Chinese is a very nice bonus.
